Mohabbat Kise Kahe?
Koi samzhaye..
Kisko mohabbat kahe?
Voh jo raato ko,
Kalikh lage aangan me jagaye,
Rulaaye, sataye..
Ya,
Voh job bhare saapno ko
Daman me liye
Hasaye, khilaye?
Koi samzhaye..
Kisko mohabbat kahe?
Voh jo chand ki bojzal aankho
Mei kajal ki syahi se,
dhundhli lage..
ya,
voh jo suraj ki ujjali dhoop
ki sunahari taap me mehke?
Koi samzhaye..
Kisko mohabbat kahe?
Voh jo aadhoore alfazoo mei
Uljhe,
Ankahi se kahani lage…
Ya,
Voh jo aalfazoo ke mohtaz se pare
Sari aadhoori kahaniyon ka,
Aant sa lage..
Koi samzhaye..
Kisko mohabbat kahe?

Aei Ajnabi
Aei ajnabi
Kyon tum mujhko
Itne aapne se lage?
Ki jante the janmo se
Tum ko
Iitne chir parichit lage.
Yo to
Sath hota hai chand lamho ka
par kyo ye sath tumhara
hume sadiyo ka sa lage?
Aei ajnabi
Kyon tum mujhko
Itne aapne se lage?
Na to nayana mile
Na hi kabhi tan mile
Phir bhi man tumhara
Na jane kyo itna
Aapna sa lage.
Kahne ko hum hai paraye
Tum bhi na jane kaha se aaye
Phir bhi na jane kyon
Tum sang aant tak
chalne ka dil kare.
Aei ajnabi
Kyon tum mujhko
Itne aapne se lage?
Jante hai hum
Tumhara rasta hai dooja
Humara doosra
Shayad
Ek din humko
Tumse duur hi hai jaana
Par kyoun
Inehi raasto me thahar jaane
Ka mann kare
Aei ajnabi
Kyon tum mujhko
Itne aapne se lage?

Lage Nom Ai
Nordstrom was a simple man
Who had some non-conformist plan
To save his ass
Every night he danced alone
And blotted out the monotone
That was his past
He packs his bag of mysteries
And leaves the lonely memories
Where they belong
They came and went so easily
This rising tide identity
Sings like a song
Lets sing
Lage nom ai nom ai
When you know that life is just a game
Lage nom ai nom ai (oh!)
Hes the man who gave up his own name
In the roll of the cosmic dice
You win one heart and lose it twice
Before you know
Love is fine until you taste
This melancholy bouillabaisse
Called letting go
Lage nom ai nom ai
When you know that life is just a game
Lage nom ai nom ai (hey!)
Hes the man who gave up his own name
He moved on up to old beantown
And summered on the vineyard sound
To pass the day (day ay ay oh)
Island hopping crab key bound
Tendin bar he thinks hes found
A better way (ay ay ay oh)
Now were back where we belong
Without a clue and still without
A master plan (ay ay ay oh)
Incident or accident
It all depends on if youre meant
To understand (ay ay ay oh)
Lage nom ai nom ai
When you know that life is just a game
Lage nom ai nom ai
Hes the man who gave up his own name
Hes the man who gave up his own name
Spoken:
Eah, ol nordstroms gone. checked out. readin
The wrong kind of books...listenin to that wild
Carribbean music. he wiped himself out of his own computer.
Hes the man who gave up his own name. hes gone.
[note: lage nom ai nom ai is island patois which loosely translates:
The man who gave up his own name.]

Kaha Dhoondhe Kisko?
Kaha dhundhe kisko?
Jo mila,
Woh milke,
Khota hi gaya.
Kabhi ujalo ne jala diya.
Kabhi andhero ne cheepa liya.
Jo mila,
Khawab ban,
Oojhal hota hi gaya.
Badi mannate ki
Takdeeron se,
Kabhi bandh darwaza
Bandh hi raha
Toh,
kabhi khulkar bhi
Khali hi raha.
Kaha dhundhe kisko?
Ret ke gharondoo me?
Jo har lahar ke saath
Badle sahar?
Ya un baadloo me?
Jo har jhoke me
Badle nagar?
Bahut bhagee hai manzilon ke peeche..
Kabhi manzil badal gaye,
Toh
Kabhi rahee badal gayee.
Kaha dhundhe kisko?
Jo mila
Who milke
Khota hi gaya.
Kabhi ujalo ne jala diya.
Kabhi andhero ne cheepa liya.

Ajnabee Mera Mann
Iss ajnabee se mann ka
Hum kya kare?
Koi sandook do,
Tala laga,
Chaabi samandar ko sonp aaye.
Ya phir,
Sandook hi ko
Samandar me pheek aaye.
Iss ajnabee se mann ka
Hum kya kare?
Koi khoota ho,
Baedi phasa,
Bandh ke rakhe,
Ya phir,
Khoote ke hi supurd
Mann aur baedi kar aaye.
Par…
Kya kare…
Mann hai,
Dhadkan mei basta hai,
Seene me rahta hai
Aur vahi se,
Sara shor karta hai.
Jakhmi hai,
Darun vilap karta hai,
Kabhi beraham,
Aatahas karta hai,
Lakh samjzhaye
Nahi samajhta,
Kabhi bina kahe hi
Maan jata hai.
Kabhi bahti nadiya se bhi
Pyaasa lout aata hai,
To kabhi,
Bul bule par
aapni shristi loota aata hai.
Koi kahe,
Koi toh kahe….
Iss ajnabee se mann ka
Hum kya kare? -anjali

Tum Kyun Nahi Aaye Pehle Kabhi?
Tum kyun aaye abhi?
Duniya bhar ki roshni liye?
Hume andhere ki aadat
Ho chalee thee.
Kabhi youn khud ko dekha nahi,
Andhere me sheesha nazar aaya hi nahi.
Tum kyun aaye abhi?
Itni sari khusiyan liye
Hume gamo se mohabbat
Ho gayee thee.
Dekho..
daman me sambhali jaati nahi!
Kabhi issko batorte hai,
Toh kabhi uss ko kho dete hai!
Tum kyun aaye abhi?
Umar bhar ki guftagoo liye?
Bheed me tanha phirte the,
Kabhi bewazah haste,
Kabhi bewazah rote the,
Par aah tak nahi karte the.
Abb samajh aata nahi..
Tumse shikayat kare..
Ya kare gila
Tum kyun nahi aaye pehle kabhi?

Doha (couplet)
Satsaiya ke dohre jyun naavik ke teer
Dekhan men chote lage ghaav kare ghambir.
Din na beete..na beett ti ye raat
Din na beete
na beettti hai raat,
yaad me aapke
na subah ka hota hai ujjala
na khatam hoti kali se ye raat.
Rook paate aapko
Palko ke darmayan
Itni na thi kabiliyat
Na hi koi chah.
Phir kho kar aapko
Kyon hota hai ye mann udass.
Bemanzil rahee thi
tanha musafir the.
Phir kuch pal ke saath se
Kyoun ho gaya hume
Aapke humsafar hone ka
Ehsas?
Jante thee
dil tab bhi Tha tanha,
Kal bhi rahega tanha
Phir tanhaee kyoun
Lage itni tanha
Aur dil itna khali
Aapke bina.
Sannate se ghabrate hai
Shor me sambhal jaate hai
Ab shor bhi lage hai sannata
Jaane ab kab sammbhalanga
Ye mann mera
bhulbhuliya me jo khoya
sa hai aaj.
Din na beete
na beettti hai raat- anjali

Tumhare Saath
Tamam jindagi kaati humne
Tak -taki laga,
Uss tat ko nihar,
Choote he jo ho jata raha,
Dur,
Bahut dur.. har baar.
Tumhare saath,
Sochte hai,
Choo hi lenge kadam,
Us tat ko…. is baar..
Tamam umr kaati humne
Becheeni me,
Us subah ka raat se,
Aur us raat ka subah se,
Palko pe liye
Na jaane kaun sa intezar.
Tumhare saath,
Lagta hai,
Jee hi lenge aakhir,
Voh subah, voh raat
Ek hi din, ek pal hi mei,
ek baar.
Tamam umr dhoondhte rahe jo
Dar dar..bhatak bhatak,
Gali gali, dastak de hr deewar,
Tumhare saath,
Shayad,
Voh mil hi gaya hai,
Haath aa gaya hai,
Jo mil ke bhi khota raha
Har baar.
Bahut jindagi jee le humne
Kuch khali, kuch aadhoore se lekar
Na janne kitne kitne aahsas,
Tumhare saath,
Na jaane kyun
Bharne laga hai khalipan
Poore se lagne lage hai…
Voh tamam aadhoore aahsas..

When We Return
Together we trained together we sailed
Together we battled for souls and wailed
Together we cracked up to disguise our fear
Together we dreamt of coming home for a beer
When we returned 'Together' it wasn't
For the bliss we shared you weren't present
Shedding blood and tears sacrificed for our children
We salute you our friend as a hero unforgotten

Mrigtrishna
Raato ko,
Subah ke intezar me
Ek mrig tha jagta.
Aur po phate hi
Indradhanush ki tak me
Tak- taki laga
Shitij par tha zhakta.
Rango bhara, ranggen tha
Nipun, tej, haseen tha.
Na jaane kyou phir bhi
Indradhanush ke rangoo par
Kyon jaan warta.
Marichika hai, marusthal hai
Yeh mrig hai jaanta
Parantu,
Uusee marichika ke peeche
Nirantar, paraspar bhagta.
Phir sahi galat ke yudh me
Paraspar khud hi harta.
Vyatha thi,
Ya mazboori
Ya kahe pagalpan,
Pratibimb khud ki dekh
Aaparichit
Baar baar parichay mangta.
Phir bhi..
Raat hi se
Subah ke intezar mei
Vah mrig tha jagta…

Mann Toh Mann Hai
Mann to mann hai
Ek sawachand panchi
Kaun use kisi bandhan
me bandh paya hai.
Lakh talo me rah kar bhi
uuse kon bandi bana paya hai.
Dekho to uuadan uski
Chand lamho mei
Vo to kitne brahmand
Bhraman kar aaya hai.
Mann to mann hai
Ek sawachand panchi
Kaun use kisi bandhan
me bandh paya hai.
Tan ko to bandh liya
kadiyo se.
Kabhi diwaroo mein
Kabhi dooriyo mein
Mann ke aashwo ki
Doowd kaun, kaha,
rok paya hai
Mann to mann hai
Ek sawachand panchi
Kaun use kisi bandhan
me bandh paya hai.
mann doodaye
mann hasaye
mann roolaye
mann ki mahima
kya kabhi kooie jaan paya hai.
Mann to mann hai
Ek sawachand panchi
Kaun use kisi bandhan
me bandh paya hai
mann chanchal hai,
jharno sa
baadlo mein chamakti bijjliyo sa.
mann paavan hai
pooja mein chadhe puspo sa.
mann pischash hai
khoon mooh lage narbhakshi sa.

Mann to mann hai,
Ek sawachand panchi
Kaun use kisi bandhan

Dekho to uuadan uski

Hindi Poem- Chehra
Sari Raat Yuhi Bita Di Maine,
Kitabo Ke Panne Palat Te Hue,
Kuch Khwab Bunte Hue,
Palko Tale Kuch Aansu Samete Hue,
Sari Raat Yuhi Bita Di Maine,
In Nain Naksho Ko Niharte Hue,
Apni Kamiyo Ko Dhundhte Hue,
Apni Majburi Par Rote Hue,
Soch Rahi Thi Main,
Kya Kiya Tha Maine,
Kyu Kiya Tha Maine,
Kya Achi Nahi Thi Sirf Vo Jaan Pehchaan,
Ki Dena Chaha Use Mohabbat Ka Naam Maine,
Soch Rahi Thi Main,
Kya Keh Gaya Vo Itni Asani Se,
Kyu Keh Gaya Vo Itni Asani Se,
Kara Gaya Mujhe Meri Badsurti,
Meri Kamiyo Ka Ehsas,
Aur Thukra Gaya Mujhe Itni Asani Se,
Kya Dil Nahi Tha Uske Paas,
Ya Un Shabdo Ki Mithaas Kahi Kho Gayi Thi,
Aakhir Kiya Kya Maine,
Jo Mere Ehsaso Ki Zamane Bhar Me Khilli Udayi Gayi Thi,
Bas Pyar Hi To Kiya Tha,
Use Apna Dil Hi To Diya Tha,
Phir Bhi Kyu Sabke Samne Ek Mazaak Ban Kar Reh Gayi Thi,
Par Galti To Thi Hi Meri,
Ki Uski Neeli Aankho Me Dubti Chali Gayi Thi,
Uski Har Hasi Me Ek Sapna Bunti Chali Gayi Thi,
Dosh Uska Nahi Mera Hain,
Sirf Main Aur Mera Yeh Badsurat Chehra Hain,
Phir Bhi Kyun Aaj Khud Ko Bikhra Sa Mehsus Karti Hu,
Shayad Is Chehre Ke Karan Kisi Ko Ab Apna Dil Dene Se Darti Hu,
Kyunki Bahut Gehra Hota Hain Is Dard Ka Ehsas,
Par Ab Karti Hu Yahi Ardas,
Ki Ae Khuda!
Is Chehre Ko Vo Noor De,
Ki Dekhne Vala Aur Kuch Soch Hi Na Paye,
Par Is Dil Ko Dildar De,
Jiske Pyar Ke Liye Yeh Umar Bhi Kam Pad Jaye,
Aur Jisne Mujhe Thukraya,
Use Khud Koi 'Na' Keh Jaye,
Aur Tab Shayad Use Apni Galti...
Aur Mere Is Dard Ke Ehsas Ho Jaye.......

Kochi
There is divinity in her eyes
There is serenity in her face
There is purity in her soul,
She overflows with plentiful
Charm and grace.
There is simplicity in her being
She is nature's gift to me :)
With her bountiful natural beauty.
She has a naivety about her
And she's also very cheeky!
I keep falling head over heels
In love with her...
The more she amuses me
With her childish chivalry!
Yes, she's my little girl of three
She's none other than my
Dearest, darling Kochi :)
(Touch Wood. Nazar Na Lage)
I wrote this dedication in 2007 when my beloved daughter was just 3. Her name is Rupashri Chatterjee. I lovingly call her Kochi (which in Bangla means: the tender one) .

Ik Prem Pujaran. [A poem in Hindi ]
Ik prem pujaran
Liye vyakul man
Tadpti aatma
Aur dukhta tan
Nikli ghar se
Ik aas liye
Kuchh sahmi si
Kuchh ghabrati
Kabhi lajati aur kabhi todti
Vidroh se har bandhan
Aa pohanchhi jahan basti thhi chhah
Man to thha ik prem ka sagar
Tan mangta aalingan ka sukh
Par premi na samjha pujaran ka dukh
Shaied samjha bhi
Shaied apne hi dukh mein lein ho
Bhool gaya pujaran ke dukh ko.
Utaijit ho chhal pada pujaran ke sang
Kahan kidhar koi thhah na thhi
Itne bade sansar mein mano
Unke liye koi gah na thhi.
Aakhir saham ik kone mein baithe
Lage ik doje ko daikhne
Aankhein to ik duje se bolien
Aur bolien do aatmaien bhi
Par tan ka dukh ho gaya ahir.
Tab ik badal laga barasne
Pujaran ke matware naino se
Jise dekh hua vyakul woh
Aur laga kosne iss jeevan ko;
Iss sansar ko jis mein
Pyar to thha kam par thhey kitne bandhan
Tab sar uske kaandhe par rakh kar
Pujaran ne kiya sanket laot chhalne ko
Ik pagal goonga ho jaise
Na kuchh samjha na sooach saka woh
Aur chhal pada uske sang
Kahan kidhar koi kya jane...............[1972]
If I Had Wings
Yedi pyar ke pankh hote to me udneko nahi kehta
vadi aur her chorahe pe pinjda nahi rakhta
khula assma mera gharonda hota aur jameen mera assiyana
mohabbat me paigam hota mer ay naya jamana
tu na badle to na sahi hum to udte jayenge
aana tujhe hamare pas hi padega aur ayengebhi
hum us bat ko juthla nahi sakte, bhula nahi sakte
shanti ka hamara sandesh hai, har jagah hum pahuncha nahi sakte
If love had wings, i would have not allowed
I would have put no cages on cross road or turn
sky could have been my nest earth to live in
this could have been message for new world
no worry if you don't, but we will fly
you will have to come even if don't
we can't prove it wrong or forget
peace is our message and will deliver the same
